So my girlfriend and I will be going to Disneyland, with me returning to Disneyland from the DCP Fall 2014 in Disneyland. Also, my girlfriend hasn't been there in 6 year and will be our first time at any Disney Parks together. What do you More...

No. It's considered a "Group Convention" rate. Even the tickets from 9/13 to 9/24 are discounted just for the Dapper Day Event on DapperDay.com - keli7516 221.8 #1648 7-23-15 5:18PM

Any chance you can stay @the Disneyland hotel??? It's amaze balls! Also look at the food blog in the lounge,lots of posts of places you wouldn't think to check out... - DarthFairy 58.6 #4280 7-22-15 12:48PMLikeReply

Try asking to pilot the Mark Twain. For food, you can share a Monte Cristo at Cafe Orleans or I would also suggest Carthay Circle. Ate there last year and it was marvelous - JoshTheJunkyardJamboreer 336.0 #674 7-22-15 11:57PMLikeReply

If I were to take just one walking guided tour, what would it be and why? My girlfriend hasn't been there for 6 years, so might take a tour beforehand. Thanks

i agree with jenGwen323....get there 15 mins before it opens,main st opens and then the ropes drop when the official opening starts..or stay at the hotels and get in an hour early! That's the best!! - DarthFairy 58.6 #4280 7-22-15 12:53PMLikeReply

You can get some discounts if not an AP. sometimes they have a Visa only pin you can buy. I also use the points earned spending on it towards my AP (or you can get gift card). - DLKenCA 2319.4 #55 7-19-15 5:20PMLikeReply

My girlfriend of 5 years hasn't gone to Disneyland in 7 yrs. What's the best place to eat as a couple? I was thinking about Carthay Circle WOC Dining Plan, but what does it consist of? Thanks

I would actually suggest skipping the WOC dining package and instead making reservations to eat at Carthay just a little bit before the fireworks start one night, then requesting a table on the balcony (you may want to make them an hour or so before the fireworks in case you have to wait for a balcony table, and then you can always extend your meal by getting dessert or just talking after dinner if you need to). Watching the fireworks from there really is an amazing experience though because the music is piped in through the balcony's speakers and you get to have a delicious dinner with a great view. I did it two years ago and loved the experience, it felt very VIP-ish. Also, I'm guessing that doing this would actually be a cheaper option than doing WOC dining since you will just be paying for a regular dinner. - MallE 163.4 #2442 7-14-15 11:47PMLike(2)Reply

As I said before, my family and I ate at Carthay Circle twice last summer; once for Dining Package and once for fireworks on the balcony. I spent $5 plus tax more on my non WOC Dining Meal, and think I would have only saved if I had been a vegetarian or vegan. My future SIL was with us and she was Vegan and the chef came up with something really special for her; a Thai Risotto with Stir Fried vegetables with Lime, Saffron and Coconut Curry. We sampled and it was awesome. The veggies were sliced and stacked like a tower and each layer had risotto in between with a sriracha like drizzle that was more like a chutney! Yum 😁 - Catski23 7.1 #0 7-15-15 12:45AM

We went a summer night on a Tues. 3 days before the 4th of July. It was busy, but not at all crowded on the balcony. Our reservation was for 7:40pm and we sat and ate and talked for almost 2 hours; our server said we could stay to watch the fireworks since they would show at 9:30pm. Can't remember if you can hear the audio that plays the fireworks, but it was the perfect view, and Five & Dime (the Jazz group) sang and danced below us about 2 after our appetizers were served so no bustling of plates to distract from the great sounds of that band. It was like a private concert just for the balcony. We clapped and whistled a little because the crowd down below was medium sized, but very subdued. They waved to us asked us to order them some of Carthay's Cheddar Cheese & Jalapeño Biscuits. We all laughed and had such a great night with great food and a gorgeous fireworks display. 😻😻😻 - Catski23 7.1 #0 7-18-15 4:13PM

I have never been to a Dapper Day and might go to the Fall Soirée in Disneyland in mid-August. How busy is the parks on that day? Anything I should do? Also plan on going Sept 15-20, when it's usually not as busy.

I would put dapper days into the search box up top and you'll see posts from the last ones. It will probably be busy the rest of the year because of the anniversary. Bring comfortable shoes if wearing heels for later! - secretagentangel 1948.4 #75 5-2-15 12:34AMLikeReply

That lonely feeling when you come home from college is completely normal. You are not who you once were as you have been shaped from your experiences at college, so naturally the relationship between you and your family will seem different. Try talking about other family members in a positive light, your schooling, or give a compliment. These are usually good ways to break the ice. At hard, but it does get easier!

I remember coming home for Christmas while in the Navy. It was easy to feel like an outsider. Just remember that they are the same family that have always loved you. As for making friends, just believe in yourself and show what you have to offer as a friend. It also helps to tell a few jokes and smile. - ScooterMike 1963.0 #73 12-24-12 6:26AMLikeReply
